A New Pre-school for Amelia

On September 5th, Amelia started a new pre-school.  She is now in the 4 year old pre-school, one of the older children, since she turned five in October. I am amazed at how grown up she is looking these days.  I have to admit, I miss that she doesn't wear a uniform at this school because it was so easy not having to think about what she should wear, but we found this cute outfit and it was perfect for her first day.

It was a pretty morning, so she posed for a few pictures out in the front garden.

When we got to school, Amelia was excited to find that she and Abby shared a cubby in which to put her coat and bag,  her name was on a green crayon label (she was excited that the label was green just like the color of daddy's Boston Celtics).  Amelia's backpack is the pink, purple and turquoise one, second from the left.

Whilst the parents attended a quick orientation, the children went into the indoor gym just across from her classroom.

She loved the "hop ball", it brought back fond memories of the one I had a kid, which was also orange.

Here's the sign outside Mrs. Brown's classroom showing all of Amelia's classmates.

I picked up Amelia and Abby after school (I am lucky to be able to be able to share car-pooling with Abby's parents/grandparents and Kelly, her daycare provider).  Both of these cuties were very excited about the fun they had on their first day!

A couple of months have past since this first day of school, and Matthew and I recently attended a parent/teacher conference with Mrs. Brown and I'm happy to report that our little girl is doing great, I'm such a proud momma!

Keep up the good work sweet girl.
